Managing Individual Error Patterns

Essay 1: I noticed that I have not been properly citing my quotes, nor have I been properly introducing them. Yes, the introductions to my quotes summarize the general idea the author is talking about, but they are not introducing the quote. My analyses of quotes follow that same format; discussing the general idea rather than the quote. There are also some comma splices scattered throughout.

Essay 2: I noticed that I still have not been properly citing my quotes by forgetting the comma between the signal phrase and the quote. I still have a few comma splices (below), but not nearly as many as my first essay.

“It doesn’t have to be huge changes all at once, just start small. Don’t make the first thing you see when you wake up your phone, choose a meal and make it technology free, etc.”
